As a part of an anticipated lineup of games expected to do well in 2002, Interplay CEO and President Herve Caen announced that Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance will be released for the XBox sometime this year. As of yet, no extra features have been announced.

Baldur's Gate: DA has three different character types: a dwarf, human ranger and elven sorceress - each of which adapt differently in situations. Last year, the PlayStation 2 version sold 500,000 copies worldwide.
